Argument

This week for writing we had to do an argument about animals in zoos.

I believe that animals should not be kept in a zoo. 
I believe that animals do not belong in a zoo. They are wild animals and it is bad for them to be baby fed their whole life. 
I also think that its not fair that the Animals have no say and no chance to express what they are feeling and what they want. Lastly how would humans like and cope with being kept in an enclosure with another species gazing at them like dolls. 

Animals should not be kept in cages and enclosures because if they are released they will not be used to be gathering food and finding shelter for themselves. They will not know how to survive in the real world. Imagine this, your parents make your bed, cook food, put your clothes on, do your homework and everything else. And suddenly send you to make a life for your own. Pay rent and cook and all the rest of it. 

Animals also shouldn’t be in enclosures because they never said they wanted to be their. They don’t have any say or influence in where humans keep them. How would you like to be taken to an unnatural and a unknown place. 

Would you like to be bossed around. My last point is how would humans like to be held in a zoo  with another species in charge of them watching them for hours. 

So in conclusion I strongly believe that animals should not be kept in zoos for these 3 reasons. They will not be able to fend for the self in the real world, they have no say in things and humans would not like to be bossed around like that so other species probably don’t either.

Under 52s rugby

Last week I was again selected to represent the West Coast for the Under 52 kg rugby team.  I am vice captain and I play 1st 5/8th. I weigh 47kg. 

There is a tournament played between Marlborough, Nelson Bays, Golden Bay/Motueka, Buller and the West Coast in the school holidays. This a primary schools tournament with a weight restriction. The tournament is a round robin played over a week. The winner of this tournament is awarded the Seddon Shield. It is a very old and prestigious rugby tournament. 

Last year, I also played in this tournament. We beat Buller and we were very close to beating Golden Bay/ Motueka. Hopefully this year we will play well and win.
